Thread Name: BS: Winter election in Canuckville???
Subject: RE: BS: Winter election in Canuckville???
Let's put the Canadian election in perspective.   The lead story in the USA (at least on ESPN) was Duke beating Tennesee for the number one spot in Womans College Basketball.   I am sure the newspapers carried the Canadian election somewhere in their papers.   Personally I think its about time to have a leader from western provences to represent the entire country.

The most interesting thing to me about this election:   The three countries most opposed to the war in Iraq:

France, Germany, Canada.   All three prime ministers were kicked out in the next election. (Chirac replaced himself due to low popularity)

The three countries who supported the war in Iraq:

USA, Great Britain, Austrailia.

All three leaders win their reelection.

How could that happen if the world is so opposed to the war in Iraq? Even did heart liberals would have to admit that it is rather bizarre.
